We looked at some reviews on the Nuwave but decided to go ahead and get one because lots of reviews are written by idiots that can't run a cereal bowl. But the overwhelming remarks were about the bowl getting stuck if you tried to remove it and add or remove food and or check for doneness, unable to get it back in. And they were right! It just didn't want to go back in. We got a different brand and they are kinda handy. Now the IP lives up to it's expectations. And like here, IP's have their own following and adamant supporters. I'd probably go for the IP if just getting one or the other.

@BURGER MEISTER TY for your basic review. Sounds like you're leaninig towards the IP. Can you please vote in the poll. Would like to get a nice hard number between now and Black Friday.

I am a relatively new IP user. Demos it do anything revolutionary? No. Does it help get dinner on the table faster? Slightly. It is safer around my 20 month old who likes to climb up ON the stove to “help” heck yes.

I would lust out the recipes on each that seem the most interesting. Then look at what you can do now another toy, and ask yourself what fits better not.

I picked up the 9 in 1. I have only used the “manual or pressure” button.

I, too, have my eye on an air fryer. I think I'm going to go with the Phillips. Been watching sales and such to score a deal. Will pull the trigger when I find a great price like I did with the Instant Pot (on sale at Kohls plus an extra 30% off and then another $10 off - got the Ultra model for just over $100 and free shipping).

I find it amazing the savings my wife gets at Kohls. When she comes home she starts spouting off all the different price cuts she got on the item and I'm surprised the store doesn't owe her money after she gets done with the coupons. She's a keeper.

Kohl's is the one store both me and Mrs skreef like. She can go off clothes shopping while I wonder around the kitchen section. Kohl's kitchen section is almost as big as Bed Bath and Beyond's kitchen section.

No experience with air fryers at all. I did get an IP just a few weeks ago and have been enjoying its versatility since. I cook a lot of soups and stews during the cooler months and I believe the IP will be very handy.

We have an IP waiting to be unwrapped for our anniversary next week. Can't wait to try it! I like to make my own chicken stock and it seems like the IP will be much faster for recipes that involve grains and legumes (e.g. steel cut oats, black beans, pinto beans, red beans, etc.). I also have a bunch of slow-cook pork and beef recipes in mind. So my vote went to the IP.

Can't buy the IP down under, well not easily. We have a Phillips airfryer and love it. Was used Saturday night to make the chips to go with the burgers off the Akorn. 20 minutes start to finish! Having said that I have been looking at IP clones lately and think that would get slightly more use than the airfryer does. I would go the IP path first especially after the comments about the Nuwave.
